Abstract

Single-frequency fiber amplifiers in MOPA configuration operating at 1064 nm (Yb3p) and around 1550 nm (Er3p or Er3p:Yb3p) are promising candidates to fulfill the challenging requirements of laser sources of the next generation of interferometric gravitational wave detectors (GWDs). Most probably, the next generation of GWDs is going to operate not only at 1064 nm but also at 1550 nm to cover a broader range of frequencies in which gravitational waves are detectable. We developed an engineering fiber amplifier prototype at 1064 nm emitting 215 W of linearly-polarized light in the TEM00 mode. The system consists of three modules: the seed source, the pre-amplifier, and the main amplifier. The modular design ensures reliable long-term operation, decreases system complexity and simplifies repairing and maintenance procedures. It also allows for the future integration of upgraded fiber amplifier systems without excessive downtimes. We also developed and characterized a fiber amplifier prototype at around 1550 nm that emits 100 W of linearly-polarized light in the TEM00 mode. This prototype uses an Er3p:Yb3p codoped fiber that is pumped off-resonant at 940 nm. The off-resonant pumping scheme improves the Yb3p-to-Er3p energy transfer and prevents excessive generation of Yb3p-ASE.

Abstract

We report on a new all-sky search for periodic gravitational waves in the frequency band 475-2000 Hz and with a frequency time derivative in the range of [-1.0,+0.1]×10-8 Hz/s. Potential signals could be produced by a nearby spinning and slightly nonaxisymmetric isolated neutron star in our Galaxy. This search uses the data from Advanced LIGO's first observational run O1. No gravitational-wave signals were observed, and upper limits were placed on their strengths. For completeness, results from the separately published low-frequency search 20-475 Hz are included as well. Our lowest upper limit on worst-case (linearly polarized) strain amplitude h0 is ∼4×10-25 near 170 Hz, while at the high end of our frequency range, we achieve a worst-case upper limit of 1.3×10-24. For a circularly polarized source (most favorable orientation), the smallest upper limit obtained is ∼1.5×10-25. © 2018 American Physical Society.

Abstract

Single-frequency fiber amplifiers in MOPA configuration operating at 1064 nm (Yb3+) and around 1550 nm (Er3+ or Er3+:Yb3+) are promising candidates to fulfill the challenging requirements of laser sources of the next generation of interferometric gravitational wave detectors (GWDs). Most probably, the next generation of GWDs is going to operate not only at 1064 nm but also at 1550 nm to cover a broader range of frequencies in which gravitational waves are detectable. We developed an engineering fiber amplifier prototype at 1064 nm emitting 215 W of linearly-polarized light in the TEM00 mode. The system consists of three modules: the seed source, the pre-amplifier, and the main amplifier. The modular design ensures reliable long-term operation, decreases system complexity and simplifies repairing and maintenance procedures. It also allows for the future integration of upgraded fiber amplifier systems without excessive downtimes. We also developed and characterized a fiber amplifier prototype at around 1550 nm that emits 100 W of linearly-polarized light in the TEM00 mode. This prototype uses an Er3+:Yb3+ codoped fiber that is pumped off-resonant at 940 nm. The off-resonant pumping scheme improves the Yb3+-to-Er3+ energy transfer and prevents excessive generation of Yb3+-ASE.

Abstract

The article focuses on the application of carbon dioxide CO2 laser technology. Topics include its usage for enablement of fiber endcap splicing of complex fiber structures; connection of various optical elements to the fiber end face and formation of high-powercapable fiber array arrangements; and the ability to control position and size of the heating zone, and splicing temperature in real time for effective splicing results.

Abstract

We report on an ytterbium-doped monolithic fiber laser at a wavelength of 1018 nm with an output power of 200 W in continuous wave operation. The optimal parameters for setting up such a high-power fiber laser with an ytterbium-doped fiber are investigated and discussed in detail. An in-house-developed pump light stripper and a single-mode fused fiber coupler were applied to use the fiber laser for core-pumping of ytterbium-doped high-power fiber amplifiers in a monolithic setup.

40. Fiber End‐Capping and Splicing of High‐Power Fiber Arrays: CO2 laser glass welding enables the splicing of large optics and end‐capping of fiber arrangements for high‐power applications.

Author

Abstract

Well‐established splicer devices for fiber‐to‐fiber splices have been on the market for many years. The availability of CO2 laser‐based fiber splicing systems that can control the position and size of the heating zone has opened up new possibilities in the splicing of single and multiple fibers to optical elements of various sizes and shapes. The ability to control the splicing temperature in real time (ms range) enables precise and repeatable splicing results on a new level – especially for complex fiber structures such as large mode area (LMA) and hollow core fibers. Temperature‐controlled splicing also opens up the possibility of splicing different glass types (e.g. soft glass fibers). [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

44. Single-frequency fiber amplifier at 1.5 µm with 100 W in the linearly-polarized TEM 00 mode for next-generation gravitational wave detectors.

Author

Abstract

Next-generation gravitational wave detectors require single-frequency and high power lasers at a wavelength of 1.5 µm addressing a set of demanding requirements such as linearly-polarized TEM 00 radiation with low noise to run for long periods. In this context, fiber amplifiers in MOPA configuration are promising candidates to fulfill these requirements. We present a single-frequency monolithic Er:Yb co-doped fiber amplifier (EYDFA) at 1.5 µm with a linearly-polarized TEM 00 output power of 100 W. The EYDFA is pumped off-resonant at 940 nm to enhance the Yb-to-Er energy transfer efficiency and enable higher ASE threshold. We also performed numerical simulations to investigate the off-resonant pumping scheme and confirm the corresponding experimental results.
